  1. Can’t someone unredact and release the epstein files so we can be done with these fascist distractions and trump can be disappeared into a jail cell?

  4. Reality doesn’t matter to Trump as much as reality TV does. It doesn’t matter to him if the federal takeover of control in DC was ineffective, not one one bit. He just wants the cameras on him declaring himself to be a savior, and if not that, he just wants the cameras to be on him.

  5. I love the mayor’s comment: If you want quiet streets hold another parade.

  6. It doesn’t matter what’s actually happening. He’ll lie about it. The news will continue the lie. Then the lie will become the truth.

  7. It’s a really poor use of taxpayer money and barely distract from the Epstein stuff

  8. That article completely misses the point. This is a proving ground and normalising the use of the military. By downplaying it or focusing on the effectiveness or not, it lowers the bar.

    Whether it is for use against other areas or simply “protecting” Washington from protesters in the future, unless there is strong pushback Trump will have won another small victory on the path to dictatorship. He’s turning the Whitehouse into a palace, because he doesn’t plan on moving out.

  9. So… He’s ineffective even as a fascist. Cool. Anyways, what are we doing to remove the prick so we can start rebuilding what he has destroyed?

  12. I heard that this orange guy is protecting and harboring pedophiles now. Is that true?

  14. Really? Cuz it seems pretty concerningly effective from where I’m sitting :/

  15. I worked with the unhoused as a case manager in conjunction with a special dept within the police dept that works with them in the streets daily in a kind capacity. There were vets and others who refused housing with no strings attached. We didn’t require sobriety, mental health care, even engaging with our services of accepting toilet paper, free food, connections to social services, ect or just letting us know how you’re doing that day. We’d just write a note and move on. It’s a model that was proven successful in other countries that significantly reduced homelessness, crime and addiction.

    Obama funded it, without bragging, in cities throughout the US. Trump isn’t doing that at all, ever.

  17. He’s famously inept, that’s at least the one thing we got going for ourselves. He can try being. all big and bad, desperate to be a dictator but he’ll fumble yet again. He can can’t even talk in coherent sentences anyone. Hes just embarrassing himself at this point

  18. Same story same incoming result.
    Trump gets a few days of win but then the courts shut it down. This is the way. Tie this imbecile up in lawsuits.

  19. There is not a day that goes by without seeing on the news in my home country what Trump and his subordinates said and did. Quite entertaining.
